If you don’t have Proton Easy Anti Cheat or Proton BattlEye installed on your Steam Deck, you can install them here. If you already have them on your handheld, their installation boxes will be grayed out.
Head back to the Junk-Store plugin menu and navigate to “Games.” From there, you can log in with your Epic Games Store credentials by clicking the small login box. If you’re having trouble entering your login credentials, remember that you can bring up the Steam Deck’s built-in keyboard by pressing the Steam button and X simultaneously.
Now, the next time you access the Games section of Junk-Store, you will be able to install your favorite Epic Games Store games. All the games in your Epic Games Store library, including titles like Fall Guys that are not currently available on the Steam platform, will appear.
